Description

Frankston Memorial Park (Frankston Cemetery) is located on the corner of Cranbourne Road and Moorooduc Highway (McMahons Road), Frankston. The facility is administered by Frankston City Council with the aim of providing a local quality, tranquil resting place for the deceased and visiting relatives.

Frankston Cemetery continues to cater for persons with existing burial rights in either lawn or monumental sections. Cremated remains are also able to be placed in such graves.

Land was set aside for a cemetery in Frankston in 1864-65. The first recorded burial was 1878, although there were almost certainly burials prior to this date before the keeping of records.
